Each year of the UP Health System Family Medicine Residency is divided into 13 four week blocks. Through a combination of required and elective rotations, a resident gains a broad-based education in all medical specialty areas. UP Health System - Marquette is used for most inpatient rotations, while significant time is spent at in Marquette at the Peninsula Medical Center with community physicians for the outpatient rotations. Time may be individually arranged elsewhere to meet special requests or needs, and rural family medicine electives in the Upper Peninsula are strongly encouraged and a rural family medicine rotation in the Upper Peninsula is scheduled for all second-year residents.
Design for SuccessFirst year residents start their training with a four week introduction to residency. This rotation is designed with hands-on experiences to prepare new residents for the predictable, but critical, care situations they will soon face. Residents are guided to develop a relationship with health care team members and learn how the team most effectively works together to provide excellent patient care in the hospital and in the Family Medicine Center.
Visits to community support agencies, hands on review of examinations skills, and coaching with hospital information systems all actively prepare residents for their new role.
Rural ExperienceAt UP Health System - Marquette we are proud of our rural training. Over 90% of our graduates are practicing in federally designated rural areas. To improve resident rural experience, second-year residents do a one-month rural rotation in one of many rural communities.
